Passage One
I had to go to Amsterdam last week for a conference. I arrived at the airport in plenty of time and checked in, but I only had one small case so I decided to take it on the plane as hand luggage. As the flight was not due to board for 45 minutes, I went to a cafe, sat down,and ordered a cup of coffee.
While I was sitting there drinking my coffee and reading the paper,I was vaguely aware of a woman and her child coming to sit at the next table. I did not pay much attention to them, though, and when my flight was called I reached for my case and left.
An hour later, the plane was in the air and I decided to look at the conference programme to see what I wanted to attend. Imagine my horror when I opened the case and found that it was full of picture books and children's toys--and imagine what the woman must have thought about a case full of men's clothes and scientific papers!

11. Why did the speaker go to a cafe?
12. What was in the speaker's case?

Passage Two
There are many reasons why family life in Britain has changed so much in the last fifty years. The liberation of women in the early part of the twentieth century and the social and economic effects of World War II had a great impact on traditional family life. Women became essential to industry and the professions. During the war they had worked in factories and proved their worth, now, with the loss of millions of men, their services were indispensable to the nation.
More recently, great advances in scientific knowledge, and particularly in medicine, have had enormous social consequences.Children and better cared for and are far healthier. Infant death rate is low. Above all, parents can now plan the size of their family if they wish through more effective means of birth control.
Different attitudes to religion, authority and tradition generally have also greatly contributed to changes in family life. But these developments have affected all aspects of society. It is particularly interesting to note that the concept of "the family" as a social unit has survived all these challenges.
Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.
14. What is this passage mainly about?
15. Why did British women become indispensable to industry after World War II?
16. What remained unchanged in spite of all the challenges in family life?
Passage Three
The key question for any only child is this: why were you an only child? It's a key question for at least two reasons. If your parents had wanted several children but could have you only, they are most likely to pour into you all the energy and attention that had been intended for several children. I call this the "special jewel" phenomenon. Only children who are special jewels often arrive when their parents are older--usually in their thirties. These special jewels can become very spoiled and self-centered.
On the other hand, you may be an only child because your parents planned for only one and stuck to their plan. Your parents may give you a very strict and well-structured education to make you "a little adult". Many only children grow up feeling unhappy because they always had to be such "little adults".
Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.
17. Who are likely to treat their only children as "special jewels"?
18. Why do some only children become "little adults"?
19. What does the passage mainly discuss?
20. Why do some only children feel unhappy?
